Where did that £100k go that the supporters raised as I don't think we have signed anyone we wouldn't have if it wasn't available. Speaking to someone at the club about it they said it has long been frittered away and they can't believe this hasn't been mentioned before.  They said the AGM should be fun if it is mentioned.


When did we last pay (a reputed) 50K for a player? Kind of suggests that we haven't been able to afford it in recent times


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Could have been renamed #Operationavoidmidtable

Think Sam gy needs to remember that some of us can remember a time pre Fenty when Grimsby Town thrived and flourished and beat clubs like Newcastle, Man City and Chelsea in the League. I've just read Lord Buckleys book on my balcony in Portugal and the wave of euphoria crashed over me like it did back then. We were spoiled then, not now.

Why does he? The point he makes is a perfectly valid one. I'd say it's far more relevant than talking about when we used to compete with teams who are now owned by oligarchs and Middle Eastern royalty.

Give me an oligarch or a Sheik over a fish merchant any day of any week in any year since 2003.

Agree.......Yes we beat some massive clubs but they where "treats" for the fans on the back of a week in week out "normality" of getting the ball down, moving it to players in space and not passing it to backwards or to "hold up players" with their back to the goal.

I truly believe if we saw the "normality" now I would consider myself "spoiled" and we would be back in the FL or at least a cert for promotion this year.

Biggest thin stopping us getting up? We fail to play with the ball and have been too hung up on formations, tack tics and game plans. Maybe PH needs to stop playing Champ Manager in his spare time.

Yeah Fenty will have been fighting off the oligarchs desperate to invest in us with a fishy stick.

I think the important thing this highlights that no-one seems to mention is that it means next year we will have a mid table budget and a mid table manager in this tin pot league....    if not and FENTY stumps up extra due to play off monies etc. then why was it held back this year when it could have been added to the op promo money and made a significant difference

I am not sure the lad who sells the programmes on the corner near the Imp knows what he's on about....................This was a really long thread a few weeks ago, best left alone.  



Sorry didn't see that post as don't come on here as much anymore as whatever you say gets shot down by dicks like you. All I am saying is what I have been told within the club and no it is not by a programme seller. It is someone who is in the know and they said it should be mentioned at the AGM. I'm only passing the message on.
